Barbara Kuxhausen 'Four Directions'

December 2017 - January 2018

Opening Reception December 7th, 2017 5-8pm

"FOUR DIRECTIONS encompasses all of my artistic endeavors. My watercolors represent the original and most comfortable of my artistic expressions. My approach to the medium allows the fluidity and surprise to capture the moment. My watercolor objective is to 'get in, do it, get out'. Handmade paper collages have become an abstract extension of painting. They allow me to express a concept, historical event or an idea without painting the obvious. Ceramics is another approach to the non-objective and is a very tactile, textural expression. The combination of clay and paper evolved recently and allows me to use both mediums in an expression I call terra forms." - Barbara C. Kuxhausen
